The crops grown in Gangha - Brahmaputra valley are rice, wheat, maize, sorghum, gram, millet, jute and sugarcane.
The Gangha - Brahmaputra basin or valley is one of the most fertile regions in the world and is thus nicknamed The Green Delta. Agriculture is the main occupation. Rice is the main crop.

The valley experiences a monsoon type of climate. Summers are hot and the winters cool. The population density in the plains is quite high while that in the mountain areas is low. Terrace farming is practiced in the mountains and hills.
